And if it does not work, how is it not working?@stephenw10 said in about pfsense physical device:

@SpaceXTexnologiya you do realise this is one of the most important system specifications. Without answering this question very little meaningful specific advice can be given

Yes we need to know the total bandwidth the firewall will be required to pass. And if you're using VPNs what bandwidth does the VPN have to pass. All of it? Just for remote access?
